University of Central Oklahoma Herbarium

CSU Herbarium, located in Howell Hall LAB 152, received its Index Herbariorum designation when the institution was known as Central State University. It provides sources for teaching and learning about plants and fungi, especially those in central Oklahoma. It provides a catalogue for the identification of the biodiversity of plants in the region and makes this information available to students, researchers, and the general public. With permission of the herbarium staff, the research collection is available for use by students and faculty who demonstrate knowledge of proper handling techniques for preserved specimens.
